A GUIDE TO THE USA CONSTITUTION

Pledging Allegiance

NOTE: In 1954, in response to the Communist threat of the times, President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words “under God,” creating the 31-word pledge we say today. Bellamy’s daughter objected to this alteration.

Today it reads:

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

focus groups

Gayle King on CBS morning show – your world in 90 seconds – apparently knows better than white people what these so-called white people think.

A focus group on race comprised of mostly blacks was asked a question: If a black couple goes into an empty restaurant and the host seats them at the back of the restaurant – presumably near the restrooms and kitchen – what does the black couple think? Blacks responded with indignation. The answer was of course they’d be offended. The restaurant is empty, why seat us here?

Now the next question was the same, except it’s a white couple in an empty restaurant seated by the host in the back presumably near the restrooms and kitchen. What do the white people think? The blacks jumped in not allowing any of the white people to express themselves. They answered oh, they’d think, look we’ve got the whole restaurant to ourselves. No indignation. Happy they were – the whites.

Later when the show returned to Gayle King and she summarized, she said she loved that part of the discussion – about black and white couples in the restaurant and how they perceive where they’re seated differently. Regarding the white people’s perception, that was given by black people, that they’d somehow think it was cool to be seated next to the restroom and kitchen, because they had the whole restaurant to themselves, Gale King said, “that is so true”.

No Gayle King, it is not true, and that just shows your ignorance and arrogance about what you claim to know about what white people think. They ask a question about blacks and whites and they have the blacks answer for themselves, and then answer for the whites too. The two white news anchors sitting with Gayle King: Norah O’Donnell and John Dickerson said essentially nothing.

I can guarantee you that if Norah or John were shown to the back of any empty restaurant and seated next to the restroom or kitchen they would be outraged and indignant. They would not think it was cool that they had the whole restaurant to themselves. Both white and black would have felt the same way. This did not demonstrate how blacks and whites think differently, when blacks answered for themselves plus answered for whites. All it showed was how blacks think and how blacks think whites think. And then that process was copied by the three stooges on the stage after the fact of the focus group. This is not a conversation or a discussion. It is blacks talking black. The whites were tokens in the group.

Usually, people with children get seated at the back of the restaurant, but even so, many times in the past Steve and I when alone were seated there, and no we didn’t like it and yes we made an inquiry. It seems we didn’t look rich enough, or maybe they just didn’t know us or maybe it was something else. But waiters instinctively know that most people don’t like bad seats. Waiters don’t like bad seats when they dine out. Hosts are the same.

Color blindness came up and I already made my views known a long time ago about that. I pay attention to all colors, shapes and sizes. Hues, nuances, shadows, the whole thing. I am not blind to gender, race or religion. I can see a disabled or handicapped person. I can see every species of every animal, every leaf, flower, cloud, star, it’s all there. I’m an artist. I take it all in. Even though you may think you’re special because of your color or some other self-proclaimed attribute of your culture, to me we’re all on the same canvas. I’m not going to purposely see your color or appreciate the culture that you claim goes along with that color just because you want special attention based on mostly prejudicial variables. Most people don’t care about color, it’s the way people act that matters.

One black guy says, yeah, because of our color they see us coming. He failed to say that because of white people’s color, black people see them coming. It works both ways.

See me. See me? One woman on that panel saw too many psoriasis medication commercials for sure. I was shocked actually to hear that she wanted all white people to see her for her color and her culture and appreciate both. Blindly, you mean, without even knowing you first? Now that’s a discriminatory expectation. Accept me as I want you to accept me based on my color and my culture? So not based on your individuality and who you are as a person? Because right now I’m seeing racist written all over your color and your culture. If your color makes you who you are, then you’re a bigot. If your culture, that never got described by any black in this group, defines you instead of you defining it, then you’re enslaved by your own people and their ways, whatever those mysterious ways are.

So blacks don’t want to be individuals. That’s why they always say ‘we’, when referring to something they want. That’s why they refer to white people as all thinking the same way, in unison, like they do. The color and the culture are one and all those falling under those same categories are one, not millions of individuals, but one color, one race, one group, one voice.

That’s troublesome and worrisome to this individual woman with the DNA heritage of about twenty different regions of the world. That I’m just a white woman who needs a black group and black culture to tell the world what I think, makes me wonder if that whole focus exercise and the plight of black lives terrorists is to change white-minded people into black-minded people, so blacks can rule the planet as one color, one culture.

So, were there any handicapped people in the group? No people with disabilities allowed to share their views? Restaurants hire people with disabilities. Maybe not the one featured, and maybe that should be an issue. But it’s common knowledge how blacks in general feel about those with handicaps, regardless of color or culture – they see them as weak and unworthy. That black ball player who took up two handicapped parking spaces so that his expensive car wouldn’t get scratched was disrespecting all people with physical challenges.

That is what should have made the news and been the focus, but blacks didn’t care anything about that, and neither did any of the news shows. All they saw was a privileged somebody disrespecting the handicapped get tasered. He’s lucky that’s all he got for keeping his hands in his pockets when the police said to remove them, thinking he may be armed and wanting to kill a police officer. After all he disrespected those who can’t fight for themselves. Now he wants to sue for millions of dollars so it doesn’t happen to anybody else.

What about the disrespect of the handicapped? Oh that stuff doesn’t matter. So with all his millions he would do the same again, so how is he changing behavior with all his money that needs more money to keep changing nothing?

Did he change his view about handicapped people? Does he now see that he is not superior to them or anyone else, just because he’s rich and has a fancy car and can throw a ball into a hoop? Is he going to buy some handicapped people motorized wheel chairs and automobiles to make up for his prejudice against them? Physically challenged people drive, that’s why they have parking spaces designated for them.

So this black-colored guy with a black culture who hates handicapped people, would run them over if they fell in the street if he thought they were in his way. And all the white people are supposed to appreciate the color associated with that culture? Is he going to give lectures to all his black people on the worthiness of those with physical challenges?

He’s raising money for black lives terrorist groups. It was set up. He saw an opportunity and took it. He wanted to get beaten up. That’s my view.

The focus group too. It was a set up. Each time the whites got a chance to speak they did it in disparaging tones toward themselves, and in apologetic, conciliatory, surrendering ‘we have to do better’ terms, putting all the onus on themselves for whatever complaints were being lodged against all white people, by a few black people in a made for T.V. focus group in the name of all black people and their culture.

They were all coached on what to say, and when. That’s how focus groups are designed. With this one, they made the white faces and white culture (whatever that means) guilty as charged by the blacks and black culture. They were tried, convicted and publicly humiliated. They were socially engineered into surrendering to all black people.

Black lives terrorists do it again – hijack a show about restaurant etiquette to make their demands public. Hey, the guy who owns the restaurant says that where he came from in the Middle East he was never exposed to race. Only in America was he exposed to race. He must be like black people say they are – they all think with one thought and one voice. Then why are blacks so aggressive and Muslims so unhappy if this one thought one group one voice works so well? Oh you can be sure that he saw and heard of lots of prejudice, discrimination, enslavement, torture and slaughter where he came from. Why else would he be in the USA?

The purpose of this Black Lives terrorists charade? To make Gayle King happy? She was squirming in her seat happy.

As far as the black face wanting me to see black culture when I look at it. No thanks. I know who you are by your actions – individually. And I know that you act in unison with all people of your same color and culture, when you’re talking about people who are not your color nor of your culture. The color doesn’t interest me – though I do see through it – I don’t let other people paint my pictures nor my views for me. Neither should anybody else.

When you think too much about the color of your skin, you’re not thinking enough about your character.

We’re all different breeds of the same human animal, by the way.

Most of us are mixed breeds.

It’s best not to state or even imply your superiority over any other breed within your own species or any other species, or to state your superiority over those of any species who live with physical challenges. It’s just not the proper way to think or to act.

Being proper means being considerate, it doesn’t mean accepting blindly a color or breed based on an unknown culture.

Colors aren’t destroying the planet; the cultures are doing that. Clean up your bad cultural habits and color won’t matter. You choose to make your own color stand for what you want it to stand for. Don’t blame others for not wanting to be a part of it, when violence is how it begins, how it continues and how it ends.

CBS needs to clean up their ‘cure a prejudice with another prejudice’ act and to stop feeding white people to black people on T.V. It’s barbaric.
